Radiologic & Ultrasound Technology

Ultrasonic signals are increasingly being used for predicting material behavior, both in an engineering context (detecting anomalies in a variety of structures) and a biological context (examining human bones, body parts and unborn fetuses). Featuring contributions from authors who are specialists i... More

This Fourth Edition of Saha's classic reference on nuclear pharmacy has been thoroughly updated and judiciously expanded, including a new listing of current approved pharmaceuticals, and providing up-to-date descriptions of the latest NRC and FDA regulations. This clearly written work also contains ... More

Providing a detailed coverage that is impossible in broader-based textbooks, Urogenital Ultrasound, Second Edition, is a comprehensive study of genitourinary ultrasound that has been completely revised to keep up-to-date with this rapidly changing field. Reflecting the obviously visual nature of ult... More

Although this superb guide cannot replace the basic hands-on skills acquired in the cath lab, which require extensive training in interventional cardiology, IVUS Made Easy provides a comprehensive introduction to coronary imaging with intravascular ultrasound. Written by experienced investigators fr... More

Intracoronary stenting has emerged as the most powerful tool in interventional catheter-based therapy since the introduction of balloon angioplasty in 1977. Despite the many successes of stent placement, problems exist with restenosis, stent expansion and placement Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) he... More

The reading of ECGs should be relatively straightforward since cardiac conditions are characterized by regular electrical patterns Nonetheless, the ECG causes problems to student and physician alike. Romeo Vecht has assembled into one volume 350 ECGs, explaining each one in detail, together with tab... More

The interpretation of X-rays forms an important part of the clinical practice of medicine. While most books on X-ray diagnosis are written by radiologists, this book is different in that it is written by physicians, thus giving it a marked clinical slant. The book is targeted both at undergraduate a... More

These volumes are an abstraction from the Encyclopedia of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance of articles concerned with magnetic resonance imaging and spectroscopy. The volumes cover imaging in all its forms, and spectroscopy in as far as it relates to in vivo studies, and clinical applications involving in... More

Modern biochemical research into understanding the processes occurring within humans, animals, and plants, owes its success to the applications of radiochemicals as tracers. This work focuses on three major areas of research: use of radiochemicals in pre-clinical drug development, protein receptor s... More
